Brian Hosticka, Willis' attorney, requested that the trial in the Bletsch case be put on hold so that he could focus on a different case involving Willis - the kidnapping and murder of Jessica Heeringa.

It's possible Channel 8 might have crossed the line this time. And I'm torn about it. The station that's famous for "BREAKING NEWS" and strange story telling has produced a piece about Jessica Heeringa, the Muskegon woman who has been missing since late April. She was last seen at the gas station in Norton Shores where she works. Most in West Michigan know the story.
